Eikenella corrodens and Parvimonas micra purulent pericarditis following oral fish bone impaction: a case report

To our knowledge, this is likely the first documented case of purulent pericarditis caused by Eikenella corrodens and Parvimonas micra simultaneously. This case highlights the importance of a multidisciplinary approach and prompt management, including drainage and tailored antibiotic therapy, in mitigating the high mortality associated with purulent pericarditis.

Abstract

To our knowledge, this is likely the first documented case of purulent pericarditis caused by Eikenella corrodens and Parvimonas micra simultaneously. This case highlights the importance of a multidisciplinary approach and prompt management, including drainage and tailored antibiotic therapy, in mitigating the high mortality associated with purulent pericarditis.
